Our Latest News

These are release notes for the March 2018 update, released February 28 on Steam and March 23 on Xbox and PS4.
New hourly event Fight Club - double rep on weapon items.
Cigarette packs and lighters are now included in Havana Nights.
New rep reward Oops - for when you folded what would have been the winning hand.
Boosts can now be purchased in the shop.
Bankroll and Ring Game leaderboards now represent public games only, not private games.
Avatars will no longer play with their table item during the player's turn.
Multiple table item refill gifts from another player will now show in one consolidated message in between hands.
Adjusted a number of annoying or repetitive ambient sounds.
Upgraded loot cases are shown as upgraded on the loot case screen.
Various fixes to improve stability and reduce disconnections.
In tournaments, the Dead Button Rule affects how the button is moved and the blinds are handled after any players that posted the big or small blinds leave the game. The big blind moves forward to the next active player, the small blind moves to the previous big blind, and the button moves to the previous small blind. If the small blind is on an empty seat, no small blind is posted. A player can effectively be on the button two or more times in a row when the button lands on an empty seat. No player will pay the big blind twice in a row, and no player will avoid paying the blinds. This had a bug that occasionally caused players to be the big blind twice in a row. This is now fixed.
In ring games, the Simplified Button Rule is used. This occasionally causes players to be the big blind twice in a row, or to be on the button twice in a row, or blinds to skip over players. This update on XB1 and PS4 prevents repeated big blinds, but does not address the other issues. The next update will address those issues by switching to the Moving Button Rule. That change is already live in the current Steam version.
In rare circumstances, the game can allow you to send an invalid bet to the server, which then rejects your action and causes you to fold. This has been mostly fixed on the server end - instead of rejecting your action and folding, the server will attempt to do what you intended. The full, proper fix is on the client side and will be in the May update for consoles. The client-side fix is currently live on Steam.
You now get an extra 5 minutes beyond your normal sit out time to rejoin your game after being disconnected.

We've released a brand-new update for Prominence Poker on PC, Xbox One & PS4. Big thanks to our community for giving us feedback and reporting any issues they came across, it definitely helps!
Check out the list of changes below:
Adjusted loot case chip rewards and upgrade prices to match store prices.
Upgraded loot cases will never award duplicate items or nicknames.
Ranked tournament rating calculations are now based upon relative tier instead of precise relative rating.
The winner close up at the end of a hand is now shown only if the hand is interesting enough.
There are now roughly triple the number of win/lose reaction animations.
Some improvements to the nickname screen to make it more usable.
Lobbies now show a background image representing the chosen venue.
"Waiting for next hand" is now shown when you join a ring game in progress.
Fixed a bug that caused the bankroll shown while at the table to not immediately reflect the chips earned from a challenge.
Fixed a bug that caused the community cards in the HUD to get stuck showing the previous hand's cards until new cards are dealt.
Fixed a bug that caused the daily cut timer to be inaccurate and misleading.
Fixed a bug that caused the daily cut spinner sound to repeat forever.
Fixed various cosmetic bugs in the shell.
Many bug fixes to reduce server disconnections and improve stability.
Fixed a bug that caused your bankroll not to reflect your ranked tournament chip rewards immediately after claiming them.
REP received from sending gifts to other players used to be random. Now it's 10% of the gift purchase price. For example, if you buy a gift for someone for 150,000 chips you will receive 15,000 rep.
Fixed a bug that caused some instability during ranked tournament matchmaking.
The all-in close up is now shown for everyone at the table, not just for the player going all-in. However, it is only shown when the situation is interesting enough, which is not very often in practice.

Greetings Sharks! Today, the long-awaited Diamonds affiliation comes to Prominence Poker on Steam (PC), Xbox One, and PlayStation 4! This update brings a ton of new features, provides some quality of life changes, and fixes a number of bugs reported by the community.

The Diamonds update brings a brand-new affiliation to the mix which includes a new venue, rewards, and a new boss to face off against.

This update also includes the addition of loot cases, which players will receive each time they level up. We've also removed the level cap, added new achievements/trophies, made numerous changes to ranked, implemented a new VOIP system, and made changes to the Sit Out Timer system. Plenty of other changes have been added in the game, but we'll let you see for yourself.

We're humbled by the support of the community and look forward to seeing what you think of the new update.
Here's an overview of what was included in this update, though keep in mind this isn't meant to be an exhaustive list:
Big Updates

players against other opponents with similar skill levels.
• The level cap has been removed! Level up to your heart’s content
• Enjoy a free boost on us!

• New VOIP System.

This update should fix the inability to rejoin a 6 player ranked tournament after at least one player has been knocked out. It also fixes a very rare crash on the game results screen. And those of you who have negative hands remaining on a table item boost should find that you now have more than zero hands remaining on that item, after re-Entering Prominence.

7/5/17
Player counts in the Ranked Games lobby, back by popular demand
Your missing 2% table item boosts have been converted to 5% boosts
A few minor cosmetic and server fixes

Those of you wishing you could dive into a game immediately upon firing up Prominence Poker should be pleased with today's update. Along with a handful of minor fixes and tweaks, we've added a Quick Play option to both Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of the game.
Here's how it works:
At the top of the Main Menu, you'll now see an option called "Quick Play." If you click that option, Prominence Poker will add you to the first available game with minimal wait. By default, Quick Play will attempt to find tables with buy-ins that are 5% of your total bankroll, but if you'd prefer higher stakes games, you can change your Default Buy-in in the Game Options menu to any level from from 5% to 80%.
As always, the team behind Prominence Poker relies on your crucial feedback, so give Quick Play a try and let us know what you think!

A new season of Ranked Games in Prominence Poker starts in just a few hours, but before you all start attacking the leaderboards, we'd like to let you in on a few of the changes you'll see during the new season.

First off, our seasons have been extended. Instead of a single month, players now have two months before the leaderboards reset and start a new season.
Second, we've heard your feedback and have changed the points necessary to reach each ranked tier. This should make it easier to break into the higher tiers. Have a look:
Tier Old New
Bronze 0-1199 0-999
Silver 1200-1399 1000-1099
Gold 1400-1599 1100-1199
Platinum 1600-1799 1200-1299
Diamond 1800+ 1300+

As always, we'll continue to evaluate your feedback and make changes to the Ranked Games system, so please, let us know what you think, either in the comments below, or in the forums: http://www.prominencepoker.com/index.php?/forums/&%2Fforums%2F=
